5、Part 1 (2 minutes) E First of all, wed like to know something about you,so Im going to ask some questions about yourselves. E Are you satisfied with the environment you are living in? A Im dissatisfied with the environment Im living in now. Im a university student in Beijing. Actually I think the en

6、vironment on campus is very good, because there are many trees and plenty of grass on campus. For example, at dusk, we can see many birds flying over the campus. Its very beautiful. What makes me dissatisfied is the environment of Beijing. Some of Beijings rivers are very dirty and smell feculent. B

7、eijing also has sensible sandstorms. This environment problem is getting more and more serious. As the suffusing dust blocks out the sky, enshrouding the city, the storm brings much inconvenience and trouble to peoples daily life and work, and even claims lives in regions where the problem is more s

8、erious. E Has your university done anything to protect the campus environment? (If yes, what has it done? /If not, why not?) A Yes, my university attaches great importance to the campus environment. There are many lawns and trees in my university. Workers often mow the lawns and clean the streets on

9、 campus. So, the campuss always kept tidy. There is a very beautiful lake on campus. After lunch, students and teachers always go there to have a walk. Three years ago, the water of this lake was very dirty, and teachers and students often complained about it. Then, my university mobilized all the s

10、tudents and teachers to clean this lake. Firstly, they drained all the water. Secondly, they scooped out the garbage that sunk to the bottom of the lake. Finally, they pumped clean water into the lake. Now the lake has restored its beauty. This is one example of what is being done to pro-tect the ca

11、mpus environment, from which we can see all teachers and students are contributing to the campus environment at protection. E Why is environmental protection important? A To know the importance of environmental protection, you should know the damage done by pollution. Pollution is harmful to human b

12、eings. Polluted water causes many kinds of diseases. And sometimes these diseases kill peoples lives. Dirty air or garbage causes stinging eyes and running noses. Pollutants are destructive. They eat away the stone and cause iron to rust. Environmental pollution is more serious in some areas. E Is e

13、nvironmental pollution a local or global problem? (Please explain) B In my opinion, environmental pollution is both a local and global problem. Environmental pollution does great damage to peoples health and drives a growing number of people into poverty. So in many nations, environmental degradatio

14、n is now recognized as a key barrier to governments ability to meet basic needs and sustain living standard. At the global level, almost all of the indicators are negative. Each year now, the level of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere reaches a new high, and the ozone layer grows thinner. Thousands

15、 of plant and animal species no longer exist. The world environmental protection has, in a sense, been under way for more than two decades. Grass-roots environmental organizations proliferated in these years. Environmental pollution is a serious problem that needs to be solved by all human beings bo

16、th on a local and global level. E Which do you think is more important, environmental protection or economic development? B Some people think that the most urgent task is to develop economy on a large scale because many people, especially in rural areas, are living in poverty. They believe only by f

17、urther balancing and developing our economy can we get rid of poverty and gain overall prosperity. On the other hand, many people insist that environmental protection should be top priority. We have only one mother earth. If our ecological environment is heavily polluted or ruined, we could not surv

18、ive on this planet. In my opinion, both economy and environment protection are urgent tasks. Without economic development, we would remain backward and possibly be conquered or bullied by other powerful countries. On the other hand without environmental protection, we would lose our home. Therefore,

19、 the best solution is to develop environmental-protection-oriented industries and agriculture, killing two birds with one stone. 二、考生相互问答 2 【正确答案】 E Now, Id like you to talk about something between yourselves. You should take care to share the opportunity of speaking. A I think newspaper is the best

20、 way to get the latest news. What happens in a day will be found in the newspaper the next day. B But television can give you the latest news earlier. Its quicker than newspaper. A I think newspaper is the best way to get the latest news. As for TV, whether we like a particular piece of news or not,

21、 all we have to do is sit in front of the tube and “let it happen“. But a newspaper reader can select what he is interested in, skip what he thinks is boring or irrelevant and read it anytime he likes. B Yes, what did you said just now is reasonable, but television news can vividly bring into our li

22、ving rooms dramatic events of singular importance, such as space launchings, natural disasters, and wars, etc. A But it cannot cover important stories in the depth they may deserve because of its time limitation. On the contrary, print news excels in its ability to devote as much space to a story as

23、 necessary, though it cannot compete with television visually. B As for me, I think the Internet is the best way to get the latest news. The news on it can be almost instantaneous especially when a gymnastic contest is held. And there is also enough space to cover anything such as a story. There are

24、 also more pictures, which are clearer than those of newspaper. A Oh, I dont think so. Maybe in the future the Internet will be the best way. But now, there is only a small proportion of people who have computers and access to the Internet. Its not popular, so its not convenient. But the newspaper i

25、s very convenient. In a word, newspaper is the best way to get the latest news. A Why did you say that the newspaper is very convenient? B Firstly, you can buy newspaper anywhere at anytime, such as the corner of a street, the subway, the supermarket and so on. Secondly, a newspaper is really very c

26、heap compared with Internet fees. Anyone can afford it no matter how poor he is. Its only about 1 Yuan. Sometimes you can subscribe one of your favorite newspapers, and the newspaper will be sent to your home every day. Then you need not go out to buy newspapers. B Which newspaper do college student

27、s like most? And why? A I just think different students like different newspapers. Sports fan like Sports Weekly most. Students majoring in Economics like 21st Century Economy Report most. Students majoring in International Politics like Peoples Daily. Last term, I was the manager of a campus newsst

28、and, so I know which one is the best seller. Besides the newspapers mentioned above, Nanfang Weekly is another newspaper which is popular among college students. The reason is that this newspaper always discloses something secret in economics or politics such as bribery. A Which kind of mass media d

29、o you think is most influential, TV, newspapers, the radio or the Internet? (Give your reasons.) B I think newspaper is the most influential mass media. Firstly, the news of TV and radio are subjective and adiaphorous, but in the news of newspaper, the author can express his attitude or opinion towa

30、rds events through literature. In fact, the newspaper is full of opinions on movie star, football star, famous people and political events. Some newspapers are famous for their critical positions on many e-vents. Nanfang Weekly is a good example. The news on Internet has its own characteristics and

31、sometimes its even more detailed than in newspapers. But it is not very popular nowadays, so what people talk about in their office or home is always the viewpoint of some newspapers. 三、继续性问答 3 【正确答案】 E Im going to give each of you a picture and Id like you to first briefly describe and then give yo

32、ur comment on what you see in the picture. Candidate A,this is your picture. You have three minutes to talk about it. A The picture shows us a prospect of family reunion. The whole family is getting together and having a wonderful supper. In holidays they choose to stay home to enjoy and relax with

33、the family. Each member of the family appears to be happy and they are toasting to each others health. In China family reunion is a traditional way of observing holidays. E Thank you. Now,candidate B,could you please ask your partner a question? B Do you think we should spend our own festivals or we

34、stern ones? A Im a more traditional person. Ive also noticed the change and my attitude toward this phenomenon is just live-and-let-live. People can have their own way of life. If they want to celebrate the western festivals, then just let them do so. But for myself, I prefer celebrating our traditi

35、onal ones. Chinese are more reserved. And being reserved is not a fault in our character. We just show our love in our own way. It may not be spoken out, but one can feel it. And usually its the deepest, and the strongest love. Under the more reserved appearance, there is often a more colorful and r

36、icher inner world. So its still more important to celebrate our own festivals. E OK. Candidate B,here is your picture. You also have three minutes to talk about your picture. B In the left of pictures, groups of people, mostly women, are shopping in the stories. They are purchasing all kinds of clot

37、hes. In holidays people usually stroll along the streets. There are usually many sales for them to get a good bargain. In the right picture, a boy indulges himself in the net. Surfing the net seems to have brought great satisfaction to him. Indeed surfing the net is convenient, but we should be awar

38、e of the problems as well. The web can be dangerous because it can be addictive and violent sites are easily accessible and can pollute young minds. Additionally, it influences your working and studying play if you spend too much time on it. So, people should be careful not to be misled. E Thank you

39、.Now,candidate A,could you please ask your partner a question? A What should we do to encounter these phenomenon? B In my opinion, at present, we have two urgent tasks at hand. One is to develop our economy quickly, it can help us win back the youth. The other is to publicize and give more attention

40、 to our own culture. We can create a kind of atmosphere with the help of government, and our mass media. We should learn from the foreigners but we should have our own understanding to these festivals. For example, we could have a candle supper with our lovers without rose or chocolate, we could express the same feeling by our own ways.
